in light of the recent thread about PEPs not forming part of the docs,
I've just pushed a change that allows to document C API elements
not part of the limited API as such. It is done like this:
... c:function:: int _PyTuple_Resize(PyObject **p, Py_ssize_t newsize)
:notlimited:
I have not yet begun adding these to the documents; if someone wants to
help with this I am glad for volunteers.
Why this is needed? The limited API is unstable and only developers of
CPython can use it (but they can look in headers).
Well, I may be reading PEP 384 wrongly, but the point is exactly to have a
*stable* API for *non-core* developers to rely upon, so that they can build
extensions that don't need to be recompiled for every version of Python.
